UNSPSC 25181713: Boat Trailer

UNSPSC 25181713 Boat Trailer, a Commodity code, covers the supply and delivery of boat trailers and integrated trailer packages for state and local government watercraft operations, as reflected in recent law enforcement and recreational acquisitions across multiple jurisdictions. State and local agencies procure trailers as standalone items and as components of complete boat packages—aluminum, fiberglass, and specialty designs ranging from single-axle configurations for small craft to tandem-axle heavy-duty systems for larger vessels. Issuing bodies span county governments (Chatham County Georgia, Broward County Florida, Jackson County Missouri, Collier County Florida), state environmental and parks departments (Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission), and sheriff's offices conducting marine law enforcement and public safety operations. A handful of repeat buyers surface in recent activity: TPWD dominates the solicitation volume with at least a dozen separate boat and trailer acquisitions for its Law Enforcement Division since March 2026, while Collier County (Florida Parks and Recreation, Sheriff's Office) and Michigan DNR appear multiple times in specialized recreational and law enforcement contexts. Chatham County (Georgia) Marine Patrol has posted multiple related procurement notices.

Activity concentrates in Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Michigan, with secondary solicitations from Maine, Illinois, California, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include Chatham County's ITB 2501474 for a marine patrol response vessel with integrated aluminum bunk trailer (due August 10, 2026), TPWD's multiple IFBs for 15- to 25-foot boat packages with trailers in support of Law Enforcement regional offices across the state (responses bound through June–April 2026), Michigan DNR's RFQs for Lund Impact 1875 and Boston Whaler 170 Montauk boats with galvanized trailers (due July 17, 2026), and Broward County's RFQ for a custom quad-axle catamaran-style trailer (due May 18, 2026). Federal funding—particularly DHS/FEMA Port Security Grant Program dollars—drives several acquisitions and triggers Build America, Buy America compliance and M/WBE subcontracting goals (30% combined in the Chatham County marine patrol vessel). Most recent solicitations are competitively bid ITBs or RFQs with response deadlines within 30–60 days; a small number are brand-specific RFQs (Michigan DNR) or special procurements (Hillsborough County sole-source awards to Coastal Rescue Solutions and Sun State International Trucks for specialized trailer systems with June 30, 2026 delivery deadlines). Pricing is typically FOB destination with freight prepaid by vendor; warranty terms span manufacturer standard coverage (often 10 years on hull, 2 years on collar systems) to extended provisions negotiated at award.
